This Small Modular Reactor movement with reactors built on assembly lines and shipped to a site is going to pick up speed. It baffles me why people don’t seem to get this at all.

Most important is that, when the reactor is spent, it goes back to the factory to be refurbished. Intrinsically safe. No onsite waste.

Yes, carbon dioxide does stimulate crops. It also stimulates wildfire fuel between 20 and 60% depending upon the species. There is a hidden cost to anything and vegetative growth is a risk to be mitigated in a free market. That's just how things are.

You're right, the public should be jumping up and down for micro-nukes.
